TIMELINKS

1944-45BRITTENPeter Grimes, op. 33World War II comes toan end

Background

It is a bleak little place: not beautiful. It huddlesaround a int-towered church and sprawls downto the North Seaand what a wallop the sea makesas it pounds at the shingle! Nearby is a quay, at theside of an estuary, and here the scenery becomesmelancholy and at; expanses of mud, saltishcommons, the marsh-birds crying.

This description of Aldeburgh, a shing

town on the Suffolk coast, northeast of London,was written by the novelist E. M. Forster in anappreciation of George Crabbe (1754-1832).A clergyman and poet from the Suffolk coast,Crabbe knew and wrote about the people wholived and worked there. He was not one of thebetter-known gures of English literature in 1941,when Forsters article appeared, nor is he today.But Forster appreciated Crabbes ability to nddrama and pathos in the lives of the poor villagersof Suffolk and, perhaps even more, the sense ofplace his writing conveys. Of the lonely crying ofthe shore birds and the areas bleak landscape,Forster wrote: Crabbe heard that sound and sawthat melancholy, and they got into his verse.

Benjamin Britten also knew Suffolks NorthSea coast. The composer was born and had grown

up in Lowestoft, a town just north of Aldeburgh.He had left England in the spring of 1939 withPeter Pears, the singer who would become hislifelong companion, and stayed in America forsome three years. But reading Forsters apprecia-tion of Crabbe in 1941 brought on what Brittenlater admitted was a keen sense of longing forSuffolk and the realities of that grim and excitingseacoast around Aldeburgh. That feeling intensi-

ed upon reading The Borough, a book of Crabbesstory poems. Beyond a feeling of nostalgia forhome, this work kindled in Britten a notion ofoperatic possibilities. At Brittens instigation,Pears drafted a scenario based mainly on a tragicstory about a sherman called Peter Grimes, butdrawing characters and miscellaneous detailsfrom other Boroughpoems.

either mad or drunk. Pears disagreed. He isneither mad nor drunk, the singer explained,but inspired by natures great upheavals to animaginative fancy quite out of the range of thedown-to-earth townsmen.

Grimes, then, is something of a poeticvisionary, and in this he stands apart from thesociety in which he lives. Britten declared that thestruggle between the exceptional individual andsociety was a subject very close to my heart.That Peter Grimesportrays that struggle througha decidedly awed character, less hero than anti-hero, makes it a challenging work but not a less

compelling one.

Synopsis

The story takes place in the Borough (Aldeburgh)early in the 19th century.

Prologue:Interior of the town hall.An inquest is underway to determine the cause of

death of a boy apprenticed to the sherman PeterGrimes. The lawyer, Swallow, rules the deathaccidental but warns Grimes not to hire anotherapprentice. The sherman angrily rejects thatinjunction and complains that the verdict willnot dispel the ill feelings the townspeople harbortoward him. Of those present, only Ellen Orford, aschool teacher, displays any sympathy for Grimes.

Interlude I: DawnAct I, Scene 1:A street by the shore, a few days later.The townsfolk are busy at their daily work.Grimes calls for help hauling his boat ashore,but only Balstrode, a retired seaman, and NedKeene, an apothecary, come to his aid. Keene tellsGrimes of a workhouse boy he could take on asa new apprentice. Hobson, the carter, refuses tofetch the lad, but Ellen volunteers to bring him.

After she departs, a storm arises. The townsfolkseek shelter, leaving Grimes and Balstrode alone.Balstrode advises the sherman to leave townand go to sea, but Grimes declares that he isrooted to the place. He also confesses his dreamof a prosperous life and marrying Ellen.

Interlude II:StormAct 1, Scene 2:That evening, inside the Boar, a tavern.As the townsfolk take shelter from the storm, Grimes arrives, soaked and wildin appearance. He likens the storm to the turmoil of human affairs, provokingderision and hostility. Auntie, the taverns mistress, tries to relieve the tension

by instigating a song. Just then, Ellen and the new apprentice arrive, drenchedand exhausted. Dispensing with any pleasantries, Grimes hustles the boy outand repairs toward his hut.

Interlude III:Sunday MorningAct II, Scene 1:The street again, on a ne Sunday morning several weeks later.Ellen and the new apprentice sit in the sun by the shore while a service isconducted in the parish church. Noticing the boys torn clothes and bruisedneck, she confronts Grimes when he comes for his apprentice. Ellen and Grimes

quarrel, and he strikes her, then leaves with the boy. The townsfolk gather andvoice their anger at Grimes until the Rector and Swallow lead the men towardthe shermans home.

Interlude IV:PassacagliaAct II, Scene 2:Inside Grimes hut.Grimes, eager to reach a large shoal of sh, roughly orders his apprenticeabout. When his behavior frightens the boy, Grimes tries to calm him bytelling how well they will live if they make a good haul and he marries Ellen.

In spite of himself, he knocks the boy over, then comforts him again, hisdemeanor swinging wildly between roughness and tenderness. Grimes hearsthe townsmen approaching. Anxious to be off, he pushes his apprentice outthe door, and the boy slips and falls off the cliff to his death. Grimes scramblesdown after him. The townsmen arrive and are surprised to nd the hut empty.All depart except Balstrode, who looks about and then heads for the path thatleads down the cliff.

Interlude V:Moonlight

Act III, Scene 1: The street again, several days later.The townsfolk are gathered for a dance. Ellen tells Balstrode that Grimes boathas returned, but that the jacket his apprentice was wearing has washed upon the beach. This news is overheard and passed on to Swallow, who orders aparty to nd Grimes.

Interlude VIAct III, Scene 2:A few hours later.In the fog that has set in, the townsmen search for Grimes. Ellen and Balstrodeintercept the sherman as he attempts to return home. He is exhausted andmad with grief and desperation. Balstrode tells Grimes the only way out ofhis predicament: to take his boat back out to sea and scuttle it. Dawn breaks,and the townsfolk resume their routines. Swallow relates that a boat was seenon the horizon, apparently sinking. His report is dismissed as rumor, and thepeople return to their business.
